Genuine Hungarian cooking in Clifton: goulash, stuffed cabbage, and homemade pastries from a family that knows what it's doing. The coffee is competent; the food is why you come.

Family-run Hungarian kitchen in Clifton where the pastries are the headline, not the espresso.

Burra★★ Specialty

The Clifton branch of three Bristol Antipodean-style cafes, all on the same Extract Coffee beans. Order the flat white; the brunch menu will take care of the rest of the morning.

FED★★ Specialty

Yallah out of Falmouth on the beans, single origins with tasting notes on the menu. The brunch crowd fills the room; the coffee rewards anyone paying attention.

Mercy Mercy Mercy★★ Specialty

Hard Lines Coffee from Cardiff is the roaster here, and the espresso programme is sharper than the food-first crowd suggests. Worth the stop even if the eggs are why you came.
